Awakening Dream - I Went To Heaven

I awaken from this dream To find myself surrounded by light Where am I? I think to myself I see my grandparents waiting They have come to greet me To guide my way in this place I see others here as well So many familiar faces in this lighted space I try and think of what is happening I can still hear others chattering No one speaks but I can hear them They are talking to me, bringing me back To a self awareness of myself Of my surroundings, I realize I am only the essence of what I was, My mind reliving every moment of a life I left behind, no longer tied to that material self, free to roam and explore, to learn and to teach to decide what new path to take, As I roam I see a figure surrounded by The brightest of all the brightest light; It almost hurts to look at it outright So beautiful, so warm, so inviting I cannot resist, I must sit and partake Of the glorious words spoken, of the truth that can never be broken; of the warmth and Love that embraces me; and teaches me that this life is to transform and reform and move on, leaving all else behind, As I look more closely I realize that this Light is the spirit of all that is holy, it tells me Behold another child of God has arrived. I bow my head in silence as I feel I do not deserve to be amongst the blessed, Immediately the spirit looks at me and says, I hear your thoughts my child, All are welcome who will be guided by the word.
